Poor Judgment

John McCain accused Barack Obama of a "failure in judgment" on the Iraq war and, that the conflict between Russia and Georgia should be a reminder that America needs a strong commander-in-chief.

Judgment? Really?

McCain and Keating had become personal friends following their initial contacts in 1981. Between 1982 and 1987, McCain had received $112,000 in political contributions from Keating and his associates. In addition, McCain's wife Cindy McCain and her father Jim Hensley had invested $359,100 in a Keating shopping center in April 1986, a year before McCain met with the regulators. McCain, his family, and their baby-sitter had made nine trips at Keating's expense, sometimes aboard Keating's jet. Three of the trips were made during vacations to Keating's opulent Bahamas retreat at Cat Cay. McCain did not pay Keating (in the amount of $13,433) for some of the trips until years after they were taken, when he learned that Keating was in trouble over Lincoln.” … “McCain was criticized by the Committee for exercising "poor judgment" when he met with the federal regulators on Keating's behalf” … “On his Keating Five experience, McCain has said: "The appearance of it was wrong. It's a wrong appearance when a group of senators appear in a meeting with a group of regulators, because it conveys the impression of undue and improper influence. And it was the wrong thing to do” - Wikipedia Keating Five

I guess McCain would recognize a "failure in judgement" when he sees one ... in a mirror
